This app doesn't work anymore since the developer has not updated the Google PLAY store after version 3.5.15 and now doesn't respond to anybody's email.

If you have recently purchased it then I am sorry for you. You should have read feedback for this app.

I am using an another modded Google PLAY app from XDA which doesn't do any harm. Search for that (I would have provided but I am logged in from mobile) which doesn't do any harm and get your phone working.

I will see if I can provide you the same later.

Good luck

[Android Apps and Games] jjwatmyself:
I am writing to report a bug in the current version on the Play Store. When build.prop is written to, the app is setting permissions incorrectly to 00 777 (root:root rwxrwxrwx). This then prevents the phone (Atrix) from booting and becomes soft-bricked. A re-flash of the ROM is then needed, i.e. the easiest method to re-write the original build.prop file using Android recovery. I have tested using the app, and then fixing the permissions before the reboot and have shown that this does resolve the issue. The permissions should be 00 644 (root:root rw-r--r--). Please update the code to reflect thr correct permissions for the build.prop file.

Here is a video of a new feature I am working on for the next version of the app. It is a temp apply hack that works 100% for ICS and Galaxy Nexus. It is also 100% Bootloop proof. If you get a bootloop, just pull out the battery and and reboot. Once rebooted you will be back at your previous dpi.

Sorry for the long video length, but i wanted to do it in real-time as to prove that it is actually working, and that i didn't just turn off the camera, fix it over adb, etc and then rebooted. You can always skip over the booting in the video.
[Android Apps and Games] method2madness:
Just bought it and as it's running it's "sanity check" to download the updated market, it reboots the Touchpad. I should note, however, that I'm running an Alpha version of Touchpad ICS which may, or may not have something to do with it.
[Android Apps and Games] theb1rdm4n:
The sanity check basically checks for 3 things: cp, rm, and chmod. These 3 commands are all needed in order to install the modded market using my program. What it does is run all 3 of those commands, as well as their busybox counterparts (busybox rm, busybox cp, busybox chmod).

It runs them without any parameters, and checks the output to verify they are working on your device. If your device crashes while running these rudimentary commands, then it is definetly the roms fault.

My only suggestion is this:

Download and install the latest version of busybox using one of the busybox installers available for free on the market.
[Android Apps and Games] method2madness:
Got it, will do. Thanks for the quick reply!

[Android Apps and Games] jpnelson40:
Can you explain to me what DPI means in this case? I know that for printers it means "Dots Per Inch", and a parallel term PPI means "pixels per inch", and that more DPI makes finer resolution, but here a lower number makes an apparently sharper display. How does your use of DPI translate? Also, is there a translation to 720p or whatever, or 1200x720? Maybe I am missing something obvious. I like the results, anyway!
[Android Apps and Games] theb1rdm4n:
DPI is esentially a scaling factor for all items in android. Android uses 160 dpi as a baseline for calculating scaling factors.

So a DPI of 320 (Stock Galaxy Nexus) is 320 / 160 or 2.0. So when a developer says they want a button to be 10 dip (display independent pixels) in height, on a galaxy nexus it will be drawn as 2.0 * 10dip = 20 pixels.

Now take for example a modded DPI of 240. That equals a scaling factor of 240 / 160 or 1.5. So that same button will be drawn as 1.5 * 10dip = 15 pixels, instead of the stock 20 pixels. Thus making the button smaller. This applies to everything that gets drawn in the android OS, including text, etc.

Also, 720p has nothing to do with dpi.
[Android Apps and Games] davpel:

@theb1rdm4n Minor problem today

The Market hiccuped today the first time I opened it. Worked great with this app all day yesterday. The first time I opened it today, the EULA popped up to be accepted. When I went to My Apps, the list was different and several apps were missing.

HOWEVER. all of the apps that were in the list were still compatible. I re-installed the modded market, rebooted, and all is well again.

Minor problem easily taken care of. Just posting so you will be aware.

[Android Apps and Games] theb1rdm4n:
I am aware of this problem, and have been working on a fix. I had thought maybe the mod3 market was going to fix it, but unfortunately it didnt. It is a very hard issue to debug, since i am unsure what is causing this. All i can do is try out some new fixes, use the market for a day or two and see if it happens.

Also, you don't need to reinstall the modded market or reboot. Simply clear app data for the market app, no reboot required. (There is even a button to do it on the Temp Fix tab that should work).

[Android Apps and Games] theb1rdm4n:
What is zoom+? :confused:

I'm sorry man, i still don't know what zoom+ means, but I will guess you want to make things bigger:

1. Move the slider to a bigger number > than the number it starts out as.

2. Click "Save and Reboot"

3. Click "Reboot" when it prompts you.

If you want a value > 320, you need to do this:

1. Menu -> Settings

2. Click "Max DPI Value"

3. Choose a value > 320

4. Press Back button

PS. Maybe try explaining what you want in details using your native language, and I can use Google Translate to try and figure out what you want.
[Android Apps and Games] krazman325:
Thank you theb1rdm4n! It seems you have already anticipated these errors and have a great fix for them already installed. Thank you for the directions.

PS Hope you have a contingency plan for when some do-gooder tries to remove this from the Market.
[Android Apps and Games] WithoutGrips:
...Sorry...
[Android Apps and Games] dew.man:
In short, yes.

All of the density apps modify the lcd.density property in build.prop (that's how they change the display). The stock market app periodically checks this value, and recognizes that the device is running a non-stock density.

In December, alienwolf426 came up with a fix that spoofs the lcd density that the market sees/reports and released it as a free modified market app to bypass that check (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20623581&postcount=10). The problem with that app was every once in a while, you would have to go and clear the market cache in App Settings.

It looks like the OP has now built upon that idea and developed a more "robust" version of the market app that (hopefully) more reliably spoofs the value that the market sees without having to clear the cache every so often.

Hope this helps explain it...
[Android Apps and Games] ubervince:
I tried the alienwolf426 fix and it totally screwed my market. After trying to reinstall the standard market (and failing), I uninstalled all updates and ended up with a very old 2. something version. That was ok for a while but not ideal. This new density mod has worked wonders for me, I am running a non standard (for Dell Streak) 240dpi spoofed market along with 200 density and it has been working without hitch for days now. Yes this app is reliable...no cache clearing...highly recommended!
[Android Apps and Games] Medic1013:
I just updated my ROM and tried to set my dpi to 200. Once I installed the new market and rebooted I was stuck on the samsung screen with the yellow triangle. I left it for about 8 minutes and nothing. Pulled the battery and again stuck on the same screen.

I'm using a Sprint Samsung Epic 4g Touch and was running your paid app fine before flashing the new ROM. Might not be your app and maybe ROM related but worth a shot posting in here.

It's been more frequent that I need to "clear data" on market vending.apk to make it working again.

The test I do is simple: go to market and search for "maps"... if Google Maps doesn't show as a result, the market is broken... after "clear data" it will show.

My question is, what causes the market to recheck and break itself?

I know in TitaniumBackup if you use the "market doctor" to link apps it will break.

I love this app, and it works great. I have noticed one issue, however.

I have a Nexus S 4G, running a CM9 nightly (4.0.3). I had the density set to 160, so it looks like an HD screen. No market issues. No other apparent app issues...that is until I got a phone call. I hear the phone ringing, but all I see on the screen is "com.android.phone process has stopped". As soon as I hit Ok, the call goes to VM. I can't make calls either, as I get the same error. I tried with the stock dialer, and Dialer One. I to set it back to the stock dpi of 240.

I was curious if your full version would fix this issue?

I feel like a noob. Can someone explain how this is supposed to work on ICS?

I'm running CM9 (an alpha) and a little confused because the ICS fix is labled as temporary. Does this mean that I have to apply it every time I want to change density? or everytime I reboot?

EDIT:

and if it's every time I change density, does that make the process:

1. Set density then save as system DPI (If I know it is the density that I want)

2. Press cancel on reboot prompt

3. Temp Apply ICS Hack and reboot

^Assuming that I've already added the marketfix
[Android Apps and Games] vinalive:
So, is it risky to use this app ? :|
[Android Apps and Games] MyronJ906:
Not really? I guess if you're not careful. It lets you try settings temporarily, so if you try a DPI temporarily and it is successful, you shouldn't have trouble making it permanent. Just make sure you are thorough in your testing

I got the pro version.. but unfortunately, the "Market Compatibility Fix" doesnt work on my device.. Actually that was the thing I needed.. Because, If I change DPI, my device doesnt work anymore.. So, I just need to set it only for the market.. I did everything, but still, cannot see the applications which need higher DPI on market..

Btw, my device supports 120 DPI.. the small one I mean.. and android version 2.3.6.. also rooted but non-deodexed (original updated rom)

Normally It can run apps which needs at least 160 DPI without any problem.. but Its annoying to search apks on google all the time, and cannot update them etc.. Thats why this app could be amazing for me.. but unfortunately, It didnt work..

any idea? thnx

Are you getting "Starting download..." and nothing happening?

Why is Google waging war on custom dpi?

And Google quickly locks that out. I've always took "parsing error" to mean the app is not compatible with my device/rom. Isn't that enough?
